Party Recap

A relaxed backyard baby shower on the patio, everyone enjoyed quarts of lemonade on this 90 degree afternoon. It happened to be Grandparent's Day, and there were 5 of them in attendance! And many Aunts and Great Auntie's as well as friends and cousins.
The first hour, everyone mingled, enjoyed snacks and a Create-a-Onesie Iron On Craft. While mom-to-be was opening gifts, guests were excitedly awaiting their opportunity to win a BINGO prize with their Baby Shower Gift Bingo Card that they had predicted themselves.
All in all, it was a lovely day, celebrating a new baby!

    Hello! Using modpodge, I applied fabric to posterboard. After it was dry, I pinched the center together and made creases in the posterboard to create the bow shape and attached a small rectangle piece of posterboard around the center to keep the shape intact.

    I used triangle crescent rolls. I cut 2 slits into the dough, about 3/4" apart and 3/4 way up the dough, at the widest point of the triangle. I then wrapped it around the center of the dough to create the center of the bow tie andbakedaccording to the instructions on the package.
